    Help with my codes please?

    Actually you were right in a technical sense Nick. THA is pulled up inside the ECU by Vc so in that sense it does share it. Just not in the AFM.

    where does this plug go to???? car runs and die

    If it's N/A it shouldn't run beyond starting with the AFM disconnected...

    A couple of questions about throttle position sensors

    Is code 41 set? Do you see code 51 at any throttle position above slightly cracked? If no to the first question and yes to the second the IDL situation is not as you claim...

    Help with my codes please?

    What Nick said (except for the part about shared power). And since neither 24 or 42 effect fuel economy in a measurable way you have other problems. Also, failure of any part in the ABS system will not set TCCS codes...

    7MGTE Starts, But Stalls Shortly After....Update July 17

    I never said that. For all I know they are bad. For sure the one you cleaned likely is. The only things I told you is 1) you were testing them wrong and 2) when you test something it's important to tell us how you did it. In this case you were testing part of the AFM that has no bearing on...

    7MGTE Starts, But Stalls Shortly After....Update July 17

    Ohming it isn't a reliable check of the AFM and it doesn't check the wiring at all. Nor does it verify if Vc and ground are present. You should check those first and once verified follow by checking Ks....preferably at the ECU connector. Use the voltage and frequency functions on your meter for...

    7MGTE Starts, But Stalls Shortly After....Update July 17

    Well, for starters you should be checking the AFMs the right way, which is under power while on the car...

    Question about the MKIII firewall

    ^ This. If the rest of the climate control system is working properly the coolant valve (or lack thereof) can't be a factor. Course, that's assuming the issue even exists...

    Won't idle well when warm, but with weird symptoms

    No surprise there. Resetting clears the idle learned value. It also points to the cause of your problem...

    A/C low port

    The amount mentioned is for R12 not R134a. You should take the car to someone who knows what they're doing. MVAC mistakes can be expensive...

    Help weird idle

    The TCCS has it's roots (as do most EFI systems) in a Bosch design. After all Bosch invented EFI. L Type systems (the L is for "luft", the German word for air) directly measure air flow into the engine to determine load. D Type systems ("druck", German for pressure) determine load...

    Help weird idle

    G? I think you mean D or L. The stock EFI system is L type.

    A/C low port

    The port on the compressor is the low side. If you're going to charge with the engine running and AC on do it there using vapor (container upright).

    security system problem, could use a few helpfull words

    You can certainly try those things but based on the symptoms it doesn't sound alarm related.

    Lots of heat inside of car

    Well duh :). That would be built btw, not build. My bad. In the interest of accuracy coolant doesn't flow through the VSV but I understand what you were getting at. Not that your problem has anything to do with that assembly...

    3k rpm limit, what now

    Actually that's one of the few things that won't hurt it, at least from a cleaning standpoint. It should still be avoided because of the cold though.

    Factory Alarms compatability? ( not a how to disable thread)

    It appears you're talking more about keyless entry than theft deterrent even though they usually talk to each other. That said, assuming the newer device isn't networked (CAN-bus, et al), there's no reason later Toyota (or even other make and model) things can't be integrated into your car. As...
